Raspberry Gerberas. . . . . . . . .

Been catching up with some jobs the last couple of days and finishing up some samples for John's shows for last night and today with his fab new dies.

We had lunch and a catch up on his way to Hochanda yesterday, which was lovely.

And yes, that was me on John's first show last night. The things I get asked to do lol!!! I was in the kitchen chatting on the phone whilst Mr D was watching the TV and he thought it highly amusing that it came up on the screen "Mrs Duck on the phone" lol!!!

Now, this is one of the cards that John demoed as I think he was happy that I came up with something different to do with the circle. He didn't do it quite how I had but he was close enough.

Ingredients

Cream, black and raspberry card

JND Gerbera Pop Out Circle dies

JND Large Butterflies die

Leane Creatief Border Branch embossing folder (on my website)

JND sentiment

Black bling

I wanted something extra across the middle which is why I used the embossing folder. Its a handy size for going across the centre and doesn't leave a mark where the edges are.

Hope that you enjoyed the shows last night and hope you will enjoy the shows today.

Wendy, trust me, my social life is anything but grand. Last week was like buses.......nothing for ages then a few come along at once lol!!!

June F, The Minxes are not falling for your niceties. In fact, this was Molly's response when I said that WART were still hoping to penetrate their defences with Maureen's bloomers.........

As you will see Myra and June S, not quite so docile or angelic lol!!!

Karen, Davey is a lucky chap. I was supposed to go to Borneo and Sepilock with Nesta and her ex in 1999 but I had to cancel my holiday (Nesta still went) and so its still on my list of places to see.

Well that's me for now except to say Happy Birthday to two of my lovely friends, Kate and Joy whose birthdays were on Tuesday.

Morning Ang, how nice to hear your voice on the TV with John last night, you could hear the repour between you and all the banter, it was lovely. The sample's that were shown of your work were amazing, love this one and the raspberry colour is fabulous, really lush.

I will be ordering the dies from one of my favourite stores later today.

Hi Ang I am just watching John now as I recorded the show last night. I've just seen this card on TV. it is a great card. I need to stop the show as I need to get ready for work but I will keep an ear out to hear your phone call. Xxx

Hello Ang, It was lovely to hear your voice last night on the Show! So true about making lovely friends through Crafting as I’ve done that too. You really do think “ outside the box” and your cards on the Show are lovely. I do like this one as it’s just so different! Ok - that’s one scary pussy cat with a lot of sharp teeth!! Lol! Love Myra xx

Hi Mrs D,Your samples were just lovely and it was great to hear your phone call.You are so right about crafting,making friends and having great products is wonderful.I am glad to see Molly is honing her ninja skills.!! Take care Lots of Love Barbara D xxx

A stunning card design today. You have given me an idea for that extra something I need for a card I am currently making that needs that special touch. My card also has a cirle and your embossing detail will be perfect for my card too. Thank you for sharing your ideas. I have not watched John's show yet. Hope to do that today. Looking forward to seeing your designs on John's shows and "hearing" about you from John. Take care sweet crafting friend.

Hello Ang,I nearly fell off my chair when your dulcet tones came over the airwaves, and it wasn't the Gin (honest). Your samples were fab and duly given a proper showing. Molly doesn't frighten me, I'll show her a photo of Myra and she'll get such a shock that she'll be putty in my hands ha ha.Hope you are well.love Maureen xxx

So sorry i missed you and John on TV last night , but not about to miss this beautiful card .love it all . I keep popping by at intervals along with trying to get motivated with a full days craft ,i will get there eventually i feel sure .Take care Ang.Elaine H X

This might be my favorite and that is saying a lot competing with butterflies and daisy rings. I love the way you "circled" the sentiment and hey, there is one butterfly. This is a very interesting, unique card...lots going on. Stephanie K
